SECTION III - PHYSICAL DATA
BOILING POINT: 675° F/357° C (Mercury); N/A (Alloy)
VAPOR PRESSURE: 0.0012mm HG° 20 C (Mercury) N/A (Alloy)
VAPOR DENSITY: (Air=1) : 7.0 (Mercury); N/A (Alloy)
SOLUBILITY IN WATER: Insoluble
SPECIFIC GRAVITY: 13.6 (Mercury); 8.0 (Alloy)
MELTING POINT: 38.89° C (Mercury); 1,000° C (Alloy)
APPEARANCE AND ODOR: A sealed, semi-rigid plastic container of heavy mobile liquid metal, (Mercury), with a
free flowing, metallic gray powder (Alloy), odorless.
SECTION IV - FIRE AND EXPLOSION DATA
FLASH POINT: N/A
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: Use extinguishing agent suitable for surrounding fire.
SPECIAL FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES: For large fires, use water spray, fog or alcohol foam. Move product
from area, if possible. Cool product exposed to flames with water from side until well after fire is out. Use agents
suitable for surrounding fire. Wear a self contained breathing apparatus (SCUBA) w/full face piece operated under
demand or positive pressure.
UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS:Use water in flooding amounts as a fog. When exposed to high
temperatures that occur during a fire, mercury can vaporize to form extremely toxic fumes. Keep upwind. Alloy is
flammable when exposed to flames.
SECTION V - HEALTH HAZARD DATA
CARCINOGENICITY: Questionable
ACUTE HEALTH EFFECTS: Inhalation of high concentration of mercury vapor can cause almost immediate
dyspnea, cough, fever, nausea and vomiting, diarrhea, stomatitis, salivation and metallic taste. Symptoms may
resolve or may progress to necrotizing, bronchiolitis, pneumonitis, pulmonary edema and pneumothorax. This
syndrome is often fatal in children. Acidosis and renal damage with renal failure may occur. Inhaling volatile
organic mercurials in high concentrations causes metallic taste, dizziness, clumsiness, slurred speech, diarrhea,
and sometimes, fatal convulsions.
CHRONIC HEALTH EFFECTS: Inhalation of mercury vapors, absorption through intact skin, dusts, over a long
period, causes mercurialism. Findings extemely variable and include tremors, salivation, stomatitis, loosening of
teeth, blue lines on the gums, pain and numbness in extremities, nephritis, diarrhea, anxiety, headache, weight
loss, anorexia, mental depression, insomnia, irritability, and instability, hallucinations and evidence of mental
deterioration. (Mercury). May cause argyria (grayish-blue pigmentation of the skin (Alloy).
FIRST AID: Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. Restore and/or support breathing as needed. Administer O2 for
clinical pneumonitis (Mercury). Gently blow nose and irrigate with clean water (Alloy). Eyes: Flush with running
water for 15 minutes, including under the eyelids (Both). Seek Medical Attention. Skin: Remove contaminated
clothing. Wash affected area with soap and water. (Both) Seek medical attention.
INGESTION: Gastric lavage with 5% solution of sodium formaldehyde sulfoxylate followed by 2% solution of
sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3), and finally leave 250cc of the sodium formaldehyde sulfoxylate in the stomach
(Mercury). Seek medical assistance for further treatment, observation and support (Both).
SECTION VI - REACTIVITY DATA STABILITY:
STABLE HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS: Thermal decompostion products include toxic mercury
vapors and oxygen.
HAZARDOUS POLYMERIZATION: None known.
INCOMPATIBILITIES: Violent reaction-acetylinic compounds; ammona; boron; diiodophosphide; ethylene oxide;
metals (aluminum, potassium, lithium, sodium, rebuidium); methyl azide, methylsilane, oxygen; oxidants (bromine,
peroxyformic acid, chlorine dioxide, nitric acid, tetracarbonsylnickel, nitromethane, silver perchlorate) (Mercury).
Acetylene, azirioine, bromine azide, 3-bromopropyne, carboxylic acid, ethylene glycol, electrolytes, ethanol + nitric
acid, athylene oxide, ethyl hydroperoxide, iodoform, nitric acid, ozonides, peroxomonosulfuric acid, peroxyformic
acid (Alloy), Hydrogen Peroxide.
SECTION VII - SPILL AND DISPOSAL PROCEDURES
SPILLS: Do not touch spilled material. Stop leak if you can do it without risk. For small spills, take up with sand or
other absorbent material and place into containers for later disposal. A mersury spill kit may also be used for small
spills in the workplace. For large spills, dike far ahead of spill for later disposal. Keep unnecessary people away.
Isolate hazard area and deny entry. (Mercury). Provide exhaust ventilation where possible. Carefully sweep or
vacuum into acceptable waste container. Avoid generating airborne dust. (Alloy).
DISPOSAL: Dispose of in accordance with local, state, and federal regulations. This product or individual
components may be salvaged or reclaimed for reuse.
SECTION VIII - SAFE HANDLING ANS USE INFORMATION
PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT:
Respiratory Protection: Yes
Ventilation/Local Exhaust: Yes
Protective Gloves: Yes
Eye Protection: Yes
Protective Clothing or Equipment: Separate work and street clothing. Store work clothing in special lockers.
Showers to be taken before chaning into street clothes. Provide pre-placement and periodic medical exams for
those regularly exposed to mercury with emphasis directed to CNS-central nervous system, skin, lungs, liver,
kidneys, and G.I. tract.
SECTION IX - SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS
The TLV would be exceeded if the contents of a small mercury clinical thermometer were dispersed in a closed
100' x 100' x 15' room. Store in a cool, dry environment. Avoid contact or generation of dust. As of the date of
preparation of this document, the foregoing information is believed to be accurate and is provided in good faith to
comply with applicable federal and state law(s). However, no warranty or representation with respect to such
information is intended nor given.

CHAPITRE IV - DONNEES SUR LE FEU ET EXPLOSIONS
PROCEDURES EN CAS D’INCENDIE: utiliser un produit extinctif adapte au feu environant.
PROCEDURES PARTIULIERES D’EXTINCTION: pour des feux importants, utiliser de l’eau ou un extincteur. Si
possible, mettre le produit a l’abri. Refroidir le produit expose dans de l’eau. Laisser refroidir le produit pendant
plusieurs heures. Porter une combinaison agrementee d’un masque respiratoire (Scuba) pour eviter l’inalation de
fumees toxiques crees par l’exposition de l’amalgam a des temperatures extremes. Expose aux flames,
l’amalgam est un produit inflamable.
SECTION V - EFFETS SUR LA SANTE
EFFETS SUR LA SANTE: l’inalation d’une quantite importante de vapeur de mercure peut provoquer toux, fievre,
diarrhe, nausees, formation de salive, gout metalique, ainsi que des convultions dans les cas les plus graves. Les
symptomes peuvent se developer en bronchite, pneumonie et autres problemes pulmonaires. Ces symptomes
peuvent etre fatals chez les enfants. Une inhalation importante de vapeur de mercure peut egalement provoquer
des problemes reinaux.
MALADIES CHRONIQUES: l’inalation de vapeur de mercure et tout contact avec la peau peut provoquer
tremblements, salivement excessif, formation de lignes bleues sur les gencives, douleurs aux extremites,
diarrhes, maux de tete, anorexie, depression, insomnie, hallucinations et deterioration mentale (mercure). L’alliage
peut egalement provoquer une coloration bleue/grise des tissus.
PREMIERS SOINS: en cas d’inalation, exposer la personne a l’air pur et pratiquer la respiration artificielle comme
besoin est. En cas de contact avec les yeux, asperger a grande eau pendant 15 minutes, sans oublier de rincer
sous les paupieres. Consulter un medecin le plus rapidement possible. En cas de contact avec la peau, laver la
partie affectee a l’eau et au savon et consulter un medecin.
EN CAS D’ABSORBTION : proceder a un lavage d’estomac avec une solution a 5% de sulfate de sodium, suivie
d’une solution a 2% de bicarbonate de soude (NoHCO), puis injerer 250cc de sulfate de sodium (mercure).
Consulter un medecin pour traitement intensif, observations et conseils.
